The Heisman trophy winner has been the center of many off-the-field issues since he rose to the national stage last season, but said he is ready to put those issues behind him.

“I’ve got to hold myself to a certain standard that the media may view me in and as the regular people may view me in, but I know I can do that. I’ve learned the true definition of being a leader; and being a leader on and off the field. As a leader for the Florida State Seminoles, I not only have to respect the name on the back of my jersey, but I have a great university that is looking for me to be a great student athlete,” said Winston.

In December, Winston was investigated for an alleged sexual assault, but he was never charged.
